Indian Wells: Wildcard Mandlik sets up second round clash against Kvitova

Wildcard Elizabeth Mandlik defeated fellow American Alison Riske-Amritraj 6-3, 5-7, 7-6 (1) to reach the second round of the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells on Wednesday.

Mandlik, ranked No 155 in the world and daughter of multiple Grand Slam winner Hana Mandlikova, will face No 15 seed Petra Kvitova next.

The loss continues a poor run of form for Riske-Amritraj – this was her sixth consecutive loss (and fourth in three sets) in 2023. The American has won only one match in seven tournaments so far this tear.
